Participants of the national project "Labor Productivity" visited the reference production of "VELTA"

Omsk Siding Invest and Metallinvest visited the VELTA software, which is a reference company for the implementation of lean manufacturing tools.

The launch of the national project at two new enterprises is scheduled for December 2021.

The management team of Omsk Siding Invest and Metallinvest visited the VELTA production association. Representatives of the company told the new participants of the national project about the pilot flow, as well as about the improvements that were implemented during the work in the electrical and mechanical assembly shops.

WELT employees shared their experience in implementing lean manufacturing tools and told their colleagues how their workflow had changed. Recall that during the 6 months of optimizing the pilot flow for the production of low–voltage complete devices, the company managed to reduce the process time by more than 7%, and the search time for parts due to a transparent storage system by more than 60%. Workplaces have also been equipped according to the principles of 5C and the position of a conveyor at the "Procurement site" has been introduced. Thanks to the national project at the pilot site, production growth amounted to 29%. The project was implemented with the support of the Federal Competence Center.

"At the moment, specialists from the Regional Competence Center are already providing targeted support to new enterprises participating in the national Labor Productivity project. Through the joint efforts of experts and employees of the company, individual solutions are being created to increase labor productivity by eliminating all types of losses. The implementation of the project in this format is aimed at creating a new culture of labor productivity and continuous improvement of the enterprise's production system. In the near future, the project team will determine the reference site where losses will be identified and eliminated, as well as employees of the companies will be trained in the field of Lean Manufacturing," said the head of the RCCKonstantin Kovalev.
